Comparing the effects of acute and chronic hypoxia in monocytic THP-1 cell culture, Bauer and colleagues [[5]] have described in detail the profiles of differential gene expression. TGF- 2 and hypoxia synergistically but diversely induced EMT of the HRPE cells, judging by the fluctuations in HIF-1 and target genes mRNA expression, as well as mitochondrial metabolism. A feature of the method is the ability to not only maintain in cell cultures a low level of oxygen close to the physiological norm (physioxic level), but also to gradually reduce it even further (hypoxia modeling). An important factor that largely determines the level of translation of cell proteins in response to hypoxia are post-transcriptional processes, in particular the regulation of functional dynamics of RNA.
